Background The biomeasurement and imageology of retinal nerve fiber layer(RNFL) thickness showed the damage of retinal structure in the early and middle stage of glaucomatous eye,however,the subtle functional damage of glaucoma can not be timely reflected only with automatic static perimeter.Microperimetry is a method of quantitatively assessing mean sensitivity (MS) of macular zone.Objective This study was to evaluate and compare the macular functional change in early and middle stage of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) and chronic angle-closure glaucoma (CACG) with MP-1 microperimeter.Metbods This trail protocol was approved by Ethic Committee of Peiking University Third Hospital,and written informed consent was obtained from each subject prior to entering the study group.A cross-sectional and case-controlled study was designed.A total of 126 eyes from 126 subjects were enrolled in the trail,including 53 eyes of 53 normal subjects,50 eyes of POAG patients and 23 eyes of CACG patients.A macular 10° program was set with MP-1 microperimetry to record the MS of various subareas.The macula was zoned into central 2°,6°,and 10° visual fields and 4 quadrants in each ring.The MS of different rings and subareas was detected and compared among POAG patients,CACG patients and normal controls.Results The MS values of central 2°,6°,10° and whole macular area were (15.09 ± 3.03),(15.72 ± 3.22),(13.99 ± 3.63) and (14.91±3.07)dB in the POAG group,which were significantly lower than those of (17.29±1.59),(18.05±1.24),(16.76±1.89) and (17.37±1.46)dB in the normal control group (all at P=0.000).The MS values of central 2°,6°,10° and whole macular area was (16.00±2.39),(15.83±2.63),(14.45±3.15) and (15.42±2.54) dB in the CACG group,and the reduced MSs were seen at the 6°,10° rings and whole macular area in the CACG group compared with the normal control group (P =0.004,0.013,0.011).Within the 6° ring,the MS values in the inferotemporal quadrant were declined in the POAG group and CACG group compared with the normal control group (P =0.000,0.022),but the difference was not statistically significant between the POAG group and the CACG group (P =0.311).In addition,the MS value in the inferonasal quadrant was significantly lower than that of the normal control group (P =0.005); while that in the CACG group was not significantly different in comparison with the normal control group (P=0.119).In the POAG group,the MS value of the inferotemporal quadrant was significantly lower than that of the superonasal or superotemopral quadrant (P =0.043,0.016),but no significant differences were found among the 4 quadrants in the CACG group (all at P＞0.05).Conclusions The mild damage of retinal function appears in the early and middle stage of POAG and CACG.More serious MS reducing occurs in the inferotemporal and inferonasal quadrants of POAG.

Background Research determined that hypoxia inducible factor-1(HIF-1)is associated with the hypoxia response in normal organ,and it plays an important role during the embryon development.It is also proved that the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF)is upregulated in embryon retina.But,whether the action of HIF-1 and VEGF is correlated is unclear. Objective The aim of this study was to investigate the dynamic change of expression of HIF-1α and VEGF in retina during embryonic development and explore the role of HIF-1α and VEGF along with retinal evolvement.Methods The different embryon ages of SD rats were obtained from 30 clean pregnant SD rats by cesarean surgery.The retinas were isolated from embryon 10一day,12一day,14-day,16-day and 20-day rats respectively.The expressions of HIF-1 α and VEGF protein in retina were semi-quantitatively and qualitatively determined by immunochemistry,and the expressions of HIF-l α and VEGF mRNA in retina with different-embryon-phase and adult rats were detected by RT-PCR. Results The hishly level of expression of HIF-1 α and VEGF protein were found in the cellular nuclei and cytoplasm of retina in embryon 10一and 12-day rats.With the increase of embryon age.the expression of HIF-1α and VEGF protein in retina lowed(F=56.70,P<0.01；F=60.78.P<0.01).Compared with the adult rats,the expressions of HIF-1α and VEGF protein in retina were higher from embryon 0-day through 20-day rats(all P<0.01).The significantly positive correlation was found in the expression level between HIF-1α and VEGF protein throughout the experimental duration(r=0.96,P=0.00).Followed the same pattern,the expression levels of HIF-1α and VEGF mRNA in retinas were also enhanced in the embryon 10- and 12-day rats.Identically,a gradually weakened trend was seen in the expressions of HIF-1 α and VEGF mRNA in retinas as the increase of gestational age of rats(F=68.84,P<0.01；F=96.49,P<0.01),and the exDressions of HIF-1 α and VEGF mRNA decreased in the adult rats compared with different embryon-phase rats,showing a statistically significant difference between them(all P<0.01). Conclusion The expressions of HIF-1 αand VEGF in retina appear a dynamic alteration from hish to low during the embryonic development of rat retina,indicating that HIF-1α/VEGF pathway might participate in the process of embryo development of rat retina.

OBJECTIVETo compare the clinical therapeutic effects between ozone and triamcinolone acetonide for the treatment of mild meniscal injury.

METHODSFrom January 2008 to December 2012, 119 patients with meniscal injury diagnosed as type I or II by MRI were divided into three groups. In the triamcinolone acetonide (A) group, there were 38 males and 2 females, with an average age of (25.34 +/- 6.34) years old, ranging from 18 to 48 years old; 36 patients had single knee injuries, 4 patients had double knee injuries and 44 knees with joint effusion. In the ozone (B) group,there were 37 males and 2 females, with an average age of (26.98 +/- 7.20) years old, ranging from 19 to 50 years old; 33 patients had single knee injuries, 6 patiens had double knees injuries and 40 knees with joint effusion. In the combination of ozone and triamcinolone acetonide (C) group, there were 37 males and 3 females,with an average age of (26.44 +/- 6.38) years old, ranging from 18 to 47 years old; 33 patients had single knee injuries, 7 patients had double knees injuries and 39 knees with joint effusion. The patients were treated with injection of 3 mg triamcinolone acetonide alone, 30 ml (30 microg/ml) ozone alone, or both two drugs respectively in knee joint cavity. All the treatment methods were carried out weekly and 4 times injections were required for a treatment course. Knee joint function was evaluated by Lysholm scale and knee joint effusion was examined by MRI before and after treatment.

RESULTSThe scale of knee joint function was 35.68 +/- 4.15 and 65.55 +/- 7.66 in group A, 36.35 +/- 6.83 and 74.39 +/- 8.47 in group B, 36.62 +/- 6.03 and 95.47 +/- 4.78 in group C before and after treatment. Compared with that before treatment, the total scale of knee joint function improved after treatment in every group. The total scale of group C was better than that of the other groups after the treatment,but there was no significant difference between group A and group B. The effective rate of these drugson joint effusion was 68.18% in group A, 62.5% in group B and 87.18% in group C. The effect of co-injection on joint effusion in group C was significantly better than that of triamcinolone acetonide or ozone alone, but the difference between group A and group B was not significant.

CONCLUSIONOzone and triamcinolone acetonide are effective in the treatment of mild meniscal injury, which can relieve symptoms and promote the recovery of joint function. Campared with the single injection, the combination of ozone and triamcinolone acetonide is better.

The study was to research the clinical characteristics of Shenmai injection treating tumor based on hospital information system, including the characteristics of the age, the sex, the dosage, the course of the treatment and the combination drugs. The data of tumor patients injected with Shenmai injection was analyzed. The information was collected from the hospital information system (HIS) in twenty hospitals of grade III-A. The method of frequencies and association rules was used in this reaearch. The patients over 45 years old were up to 3 338, about 79.36% of the whole. The ratio of male and female was 1.73: 1. The hospitalization day between 15 and 28 was most. The complications of the hypertension and coronary heart disease happened most. The support was 5.939% and 5.099% respectively. Fifty-five patients had the traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) syndrome of Qi-Yin deficiency, about 14.78% of the whole. There were 8 491 patients treated with the single dose of 81 to 100 mL, about 48.70% of the whole. The main combination drugs were dexamethasone, tropisetron and maxolon. The confidence was 44.63%, 31.22% and 20.53% respectively. The information from HIS showed that tumor patients used Shenmai injection were most quinquagenarian with smooth condition. The dose of the Shenmai injection sometimes was higher than that of the drug use instructions in clinical. Shenmai injection was most often combined with glucocorticoid, antemetic and nutritional support medicine when treating tumor in clinical.

To systematically review the incidence rate of adverse drug reaction/event by Qingkailing injection. Such databases as the PubMed, EMbase, the Cochrane library, CNKI, VIP WanFang data and CBM were searched by computer from foundation to July 30, 2015. Two reviewers independently screened literature according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, extracted data and cross check data. Then, Meta-analysis was performed by using the R 3.2.0 software, subgroup sensitivity analysis was performed based on age, mode of medicine, observation time and research quality. Sixty-three studies involving 9,793 patients with Qingkailing injection were included, 367 cases of adverse reactions/events were reported in total. The incidence rate of adverse reaction in skin and mucosa group was 2% [95% CI (0.02; 0.03)]; the digestive system adverse reaction was 6% [95% CI(0.05; 0.07); the injection site adverse reaction was 4% [95% CI (0.02; 0.07)]. In the digestive system as the main types of adverse reactions/events, incidence of children and adults were 4.6% [0.021 1; 0.097 7] and 6.9% [0.053 5; 0.089 8], respectively. Adverse reactions to skin and mucous membrane damage as the main performance/event type, the observation time > 7 days and ≤ 7 days incidence of 3% [0.012 9; 0.068 3] and 1.9% [0.007 8; 0.046 1], respectively. Subgroup analysis showed that different types of adverse reactions, combination in the incidence of adverse reactions/events were higher than that of single drug, the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). This study suggested the influence factors of adverse reactions occur, and clinical rational drug use, such as combination, age and other fators, and the influence factors vary in different populations. Therefore, clinical doctors for children and the elderly use special care was required for a clear and open spirit injection, the implementation of individualized medication.
